We are often blind to our own environment because of our assumptions, framed by media, insular thinking and our own prejudices. Smart City Consulting's blog – named one of the most intriguing in the U.S. by Pew Partnership for Civic Change – hopes to show how Memphis really is and could be through alternative questions, fresh approaches and new ideas. We hope to open your eyes - and your ears - to a new way of thinking about Memphis. Send ideas and emails to tjones@smartcityconsulting.com.

My wish this year? To see a vision for the fairgrounds that is formed by the people of Memphis. Of course that's assuming people show up to help form that vision. That's another story.
To see a vision that strengthens existing projects rather then is exclusive to them or sidelines them. A plan that complements rather then builds further redundancy. Eg. How are the Cross-town planners working with the Fairground planners to come up with a synergy between the projects? Or...are they competing for the same plan?
Let's see a project built on partnerships and public collaboration which include consulting our kids. Do we know what our kids are doing these days for fun?? Make a youth only survey.
Do we know what our kids are doing these days for fun??
